Good Ideas
£10.99Good Ideas
The way we’ve been taught excludes or limits all sorts of practical ways of finding out about ideas, knowledge and culture. From cooking to fixing loo cisterns, from dance to model-making, from playing Top Trumps to arguing with TV programmes, from collecting leaves to playing ‘Who am I?’, Michael Rosen shows how to use everything around you to learn more – and how enjoyable and satisfying it can be.

I Am Angry
£12.99I Am Angry
This kitten may look cute and cuddly, but better beware: they’re angry. Really angry. Angry, angry, angry! And this isn’t any old ‘angry’. This is a jump-up-and-down, roll-on-the-ground kind of angry. This is a spider-scaring, tiger-scaring kind of angry. This is a burst-balloon-ing, SQUASH-THE-MOON-ING kind of angry. As surreal as things may get, this is also the kind of angry that parents of toddlers will recognize – a bad mood which comes out of nowhere, escalates wildly, then disappears as suddenly as it arrived.

£7.99On the Move
Former Children’s Laureates Michael Rosen and Sir Quentin Blake join forces for a personal and uniquely affecting collection of poems about migration and displacement. Michael’s poems are divided into four: in the first series, he draws on his childhood as part of a first-generation Polish family living in London; in the second, on his perception of the War as a young boy; in the third, on his ‘missing’ relatives and the Holocaust; and in the fourth, and final, on global experiences of migration. By turns charming, shocking and heart-breaking, this is an anthology with a story to tell and a powerful point to make.

Eugène Handschuh was a Jewish member of the Resistance in occupied Paris. After he was captured by the Nazis, he was placed on a convoy to Auschwitz. Against all the odds, with the help of strangers and fellow members of the Resistance, Eugène and his father escaped the convoy and survived – when so many others did not. Former Poet Laureate Michael Rosen was inspired to tell this story after discovering his father’s uncle and aunt were on the same convoy as Eugène, but never returned.
